[Intel-gfx] [PATCH v2 2/3] drm/i915/vlv: WA to fix Voltage not getting dropped to Vmin when Gfx is power gated.

Ville suggested we don't need wait after requesting the freq. " AFAIK the punit will recheck the situation periodically, and it will try to use PUNIT_REG_GPU_FREQ_REQ."

>Also, is the 500ms timeout really required for the gfx clock?  That's a long time to potentially hold the mutex and delay any clock boosting or other activity...
Yes agree, we don't need 500ms. I will change the delay to  5ms  and submit a new command.

Thanks
Deepak

Yeah if we need to bring the gfx clocks up (which makes sense) then I guess we need this.  I'm not sure about the wait on the punit though; that could end up penalizing us in bursty workloads, since the punit can take quite some time to update the freq, but I don't actually see a wait here?

Also, is the 500ms timeout really required for the gfx clock?  That's a long time to potentially hold the mutex and delay any clock boosting or other activity...
